Tabatinga Family Fun Centre Claims Top Tourism Award

Tabatinga Family Fun Centre Coffs Harbour, has won the 2011 Best Tourist Attraction award at the NSW North Coast Tourism gala awards night held in Grafton last weekend.

The Awards support improved business planning, development and internal analysis of tourism businesses as well as celebrate the creativity, professionalism and innovation of the region's tourism industry.

The North Coast Tourism precinct covers an area from Port Stephens to the Queensland border and the award was one of the most hotly contested categories on the night. Tabatinga Family Fun Centre won a bronze medal in the same category in 2010, but following a strong year of growth and a number of new innovations that impressed the judging panel, the Coffs Harbour business topped the category and took the gold.

Tabatinga Family Fun Centre Business owner Brian Parker said, 'The Tabatinga business model has been designed to take advantage of both the local and tourist markets, so to have our contribution to local tourism recognised in this way is just fantastic. We have a very strong focus on customer service and venue presentation which is appreciated by the many families and groups that visit us while they are here on holidays.'
'Recognition of this type is a very timely one given our recent launch into the franchise market. Potential franchisees can see that our business truly is innovative and a stand out opportunity for their home town, especially if their area benefits from good tourism numbers.'

As regional winners, Tabatinga Family Fun Centre becomes an automatic finalist in the 2011 New South Wales Tourism Awards which are announced in Sydney in November.

Australian Franchises Directory would like to congratulate Tabatinga Family Fun Centre on their fantastic achievement and we wish you the best of luck in the State finals!
